Paid Memberships Pro - Approvals Add On

Automatic sign-ups can give new members access before an administrator has reviewed their application. This add-on lets site administrators check new membership requests and approve or reject them before granting access. It suits organizations that need to assess applicants, such as professional associations and clubs, as well as membership sites that want more control over who joins.

Administrators manage pending applications from the WordPress dashboard, where they can view, filter, and update requests. The add-on can send email notifications to members and administrators for approval requests, approvals, and denials. Sites can also set approval requirements for selected membership levels while allowing instant access at others, and show members their approval status during the sign-up process.
